Wait, aren't we supposed to have a high tempo offense?

I'm confused by the paragraph in this article about Cornelson possibly leaving for Missouri:

"The scheme offense run by Cornelsen’s unit at Virginia Tech this season would be a fairly vast departure from the up-tempo attack utilized by Missouri. The Tigers ranked second in the country in tempo, running 2.82 plays per minute. The Hokies ranked 59th. Missouri ranked 7th nationally in total offense and 14th in passing offense. The Hokies, with Cornelsen serving as both quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator, ranked 61st in both categories."[Post edited by UpstateSCHokie at 12/06/2017 6:57PM]
